Description

Kalthärtende Polyurethan-Weichformschaumstoffe werden üblicherweise zur Herstellung von Polsterelementen eingesetzt. Die Elastizität der konventionellen Kaltschäume macht sie für einen Einsatz als Sitzkissen geeignet. Unter Einsatz spezieller, Weichformschaum-untypischer Rohstoffkombinationen kann man kalthärtende Polyurethanschäume herstellen, die im Gegensatz zu den üblichen Kaltschäumen ein günstiges Dämpfungsverhalten aufweisen. Diese sog. "müden" Schäume sind zu Schallschutzzwecken und für alle Anwendungen, die gute Dämpfung erfordern, geeignet.Cold-curing flexible polyurethane foams are usually used to manufacture upholstery elements. The elasticity of the conventional cold foam makes it suitable for use as a seat cushion. Cold-curing polyurethane foams can be produced using special, soft-molded foam atypical raw material combinations, which, in contrast to the usual cold foams, have a favorable damping behavior. These so-called "tired" foams are suitable for sound insulation purposes and for all applications that require good damping.

Die offenzelligen Polyurethanschäume mit hohem Strömungswiderstand erfüllen die Anforderungen eines Akustikers an einen Luftschallabsorber (vgl. H. Schmidt: Schalltechnisches Wörterbuch, Düsseldorf 1984). Die Luftschallabsorption, die durch äußere Reibung an Grenzflächen entsteht, wird im wesentlichen durch die Zellstruktur und die Offenporigkeit eines Schaumes determiniert. Diese Schaumeigenschaften lassen sich bei kalthärtenden Polyurethan-Weichformschaumstoffen in gewissen Grenzen einstellen, ohne die Basisrohstoffe, d.h. Polyol und Isocyanat verändern zu müssen. Die Offenporigkeit allein reicht für eine Absorption im unteren Frequenzbereich nicht aus - insbesondere zur Körperschallabsorption muß das Gerüst des Polyurethanweichschaumes über eine intensive Dämpfung verfügen.The open-cell polyurethane foams with high flow resistance meet the requirements of an acoustician for an airborne sound absorber (cf. H. Schmidt: Schalltechnisches Wörterbuch, Düsseldorf 1984). The Airborne sound absorption, which is caused by external friction at interfaces, is essentially determined by the cell structure and the open-cell structure of a foam. These foam properties can be set within certain limits for cold-curing flexible polyurethane foams without having to change the basic raw materials, ie polyol and isocyanate. The open porosity alone is not sufficient for absorption in the lower frequency range - the structure of the flexible polyurethane foam must have intensive damping, particularly for structure-borne sound absorption.

Das Dämpfungsverhalten, welches durch den Verlustfaktor charakterisiert wird, kann bei Polyurethanschaumstoffen, insbesondere durch den Einsatz spezieller Polyole und/oder Isocyanate deutlich verbessert werden. Die DE-AS 2 751 774 beschreibt z.B. ein schalldämmendes Verbundsystem, das als Feder in einem Masse/Feder-System einen Polyurethanweichschaumstoff enthält. Der dort beschriebene Weichschaumstoff hat ein gutes Dämpfungsverhalten, wodurch der Koinzidenzeinbruch in einen Frequenzbereich zwischen 150 bis 10.000 Hz vermieden wird. Erreicht wird die gute Dämpfung durch eine Rohstoffkombination, welche etwa 20 % Hartschaumpolyol mit einer Hydroxylzahl von etwa 400 und 80 % eines Weichschaumpolyols mit einer Hydroxylzahl von etwa 50 beinhaltet. Eine zusätzliche Dämm- und Dämpfungswirkung wird durch den Einsatz von Schwerspat als anorganischem Zuschlagstoff erreicht.The damping behavior, which is characterized by the loss factor, can be significantly improved in the case of polyurethane foams, in particular by using special polyols and / or isocyanates. DE-AS 2 751 774 describes, for example, a sound-absorbing composite system which contains a flexible polyurethane foam as a spring in a mass / spring system. The soft foam described there has a good damping behavior, as a result of which the collapse of coincidence in a frequency range between 150 and 10,000 Hz is avoided. The good damping is achieved by a combination of raw materials, which contains about 20% rigid foam polyol with a hydroxyl number of about 400 and 80% of a soft foam polyol with a hydroxyl number of about 50. An additional insulation and damping effect is achieved by using heavy spar as an inorganic additive.

Die DE-OS 3 313 624 beschreibt eine Rohstoffkombination, deren hydroxylhaltige Komponente u.a. mindestens zwei verschiedene Polyetherpolyole enthält. Eines dieser Polyole muß eine OH-Zahl von 180 bis 400 haben und in einer Konzentration von mindestens 15 Gew.-% im Polyolgemisch vorliegen. Man kann damit Polyurethanweichschäume mit. Elastizitätsmodulen von etwa 5·10⁵ N/m² und Verlustfaktoren von etwa 0,35 herstellen.DE-OS 3 313 624 describes a raw material combination whose hydroxyl-containing component includes contains at least two different polyether polyols. One of these polyols must have an OH number of 180 to 400 and be present in the polyol mixture in a concentration of at least 15% by weight. You can use it with flexible polyurethane foams. Produce elastic moduli of about 5 · 10 · N / m² and loss factors of about 0.35.

Die Aufgabe der vorliegenden Erfindung bestand darin, eine Rahstoffkombination aufzufinden, welche die Herstellung von hochdämpfenden Schaumstoffen gestattet; darunter versteht man Schaumstoffe, deren Verlustfaktoren mindestens einen Wert von 0,5 haben, bevorzugt aber Verlustfaktorwerte größer als 0,9 erreichen.The object of the present invention was to find a frame material combination which allows the production of highly damping foams; this means foams whose loss factors have at least a value of 0.5, but preferably reach loss factor values greater than 0.9.

    • c) Gemische der unter a) und/oder b) bezeichneten MDI-Produkte mit maximal 25 Gew.-% aliphatischen, cycloaliphatischen, heterocyclischen oder weiteren andersartigen aromatischen Polyisocyanaten, wie sie z.B. von W.

  • 2. Mischungen aus drei Polyolen mit jeweils mindestens zwei reaktionsfähigen OH-Gruppen.
    Bei der ersten Komponente a) handelt es sich um ein weichformschaumtypisches Polyetherpolyol, welches üblicherweise di- bis hexafunktionell ist, einen OH-Zahlbereich von 25 bis 60 abdeckt und endständig mit Ethylenoxid getippt ist.
    Bei der zweiten Komponente b) kommen meist Polyetherpolyole auf der Basis von Propylenoxid zur Anwendung. Polyester und Polyetherpolyole mit geringen Anteilen an Ethylenoxid sind ebenfalls geeignet. Neben den bevorzugt eingesetzten trifunktionellen Polyolen können auch lineare und höherfunktionelle Typen eingesetzt werden.
    Der dritte Bestandteil der Polyolabmischung ist ein Polyetherpolyol c) einer OH-Zahl von 20 bis 200, einer von zwei bis sechs reichenden Funktionalität und einem hohen Ethylenoxid-Anteil. Die weichformschaumtypischen Polyetherpolyole enthalten neben Propylenoxid Ethylenoxid in einer Konzentration, welche in der Regel 20 % nicht übersteigt. Für den erfindungsgemäßen hochdämpfenden Schaum ist aber ein Polyetherpolyol c) mit hohen Ethylenoxid-Anteilen (größer 50 Gew.-%) Voraussetzung. Um die gewünschte hohe Dämpfung zu erreichen, muß die notwendige Konzentration dieses Polyols 30 %, bezogen auf die Polyolkomponenten a), b) und c), überschreiten.
  • 3. Gegebenenfalls Verbindungen mit mindestens zwei gegenüber Isocyanaten reaktionsfähigen Wasserstoffatomen und einem Molekulargewicht von 32 bis 399. Man versteht hierunter Hydroxylgruppen und/oder Aminogruppen und/oder Thiolgruppen und/oder Carboxylgruppen aufweisende Verbindungen, vorzugsweise Hydroxylgruppen und/oder Aminogruppen aufweisende Verbindungen, die als Kettenverlängerungsmittel oder Vernetzungsmittel dienen. Diese Verbindungen weisen in der Regel 2 bis 8, vorzugsweise 2 bis 4, gegenüber Isocyanaten reaktionsfähige Wasserstoffatome auf. Beispiele hierfür werden in der DE-OS 2 832 253, Seiten 10 bis 20, beschrieben.

    • a) leicht flüchtige organische Substanzen als weitere Treibmittel,
    • b) Reaktionsbeschleuniger und Reaktionsverzögerer der an sich bekannten Art in der an sich üblichen Menge,
    • c) oberflächenaktive Zusatzstoffe, wie Emulgatoren und Schaumstabilisatoren,

Trichlorethylphosphat, Trikresylphosphat, ferner Stabilisatoren gegen Alterungs- und Witterungseinflüsse, Weichmacher und fungistatisch und bakterostatisch wirkende Substanzen sowie Füllstoffe wie Bariumsulfat, Kieselgut, Ruß oder Schlämmkreide.
To produce the flexible polyurethane foams, the following are used as starting components according to the invention, for example:
  • 1. Polyisocyanates of the diphenylmethane diisocyanate and / or tolylene diisocyanate type, e.g. B. the 2,4- and 2,6-tolylene diisocyanate, and any mixtures of these isomers ("TDI");4,4'-and / or 2,4'-diphenylmethane diisocyanate (MDI), hexamethylene diisocyanate and / or isophorone diisocyanate, polyphenylpolymethylene polyisocyanates as produced by aniline-formaldehyde condensation and subsequent phosgenation ("crude MDI"), further by Carbodiimide groups, urethane groups, allophanate groups, isocyanurate groups, urea groups or biuret groups, modified polyisocyanates derived from 2,4- and / or 2,6-tolylene diisocyanate or from 4,4'- and / or 2,4'-dipenylmethane diisocyanate and / or hexamethylene diisocyanate and / or derive isophorone diisocyanate, furthermore alkyl-substituted MDI types, as described for example in DE-OS 2 935 318, DE-OS 3 032 128 and DE-OS 3 032 358.
    The following MDI types are preferably suitable as polyisocyanates to be used according to the invention:
    • a) Diphenylmethane diisocyanates in a mixture with polyphenyl polymethylene polyisocyanates, the proportion of the polyphenylpolymethylene polyisocyanate being 0 to 40% by weight and the content of diphenylmethane diisocyanate isomers being 100 to 60% by weight.
    • b) Urethane-modified aromatic di- / poly-isocyanates with an NCO content of 15 to 30% by weight, which are obtained by reacting a mixture of diphenylmethane diisocyanates and polyphenylpolymethylene polyisocyanates as described under a) with a hydroxyl compound, if appropriate also several hydroxyl compounds, the functionality of which is 2 to 6.
    • c) Mixtures of the MDI products described under a) and / or b) with a maximum of 25% by weight of aliphatic, cycloaliphatic, heterocyclic or other different aromatic polyisocyanates, as described, for example, by W. Siefken in Justus Liebigs Annalen der Chemie, 562, Pages 75 to 136.
  • 2. Mixtures of three polyols, each with at least two reactive OH groups.
    The first component a) is a soft molded foam-typical polyether polyol, which is usually di- to hexafunctional, covers an OH number range from 25 to 60 and is end-typed with ethylene oxide.
    The second component b) usually uses polyether polyols based on propylene oxide. Polyesters and polyether polyols with low levels of ethylene oxide are also suitable. In addition to the preferred trifunctional polyols, linear and higher-functional types can also be used.
    The third component of the polyol blend is a polyether polyol c) having an OH number of 20 to 200, one of two to six functionalities and a high proportion of ethylene oxide. In addition to propylene oxide, the soft molded foam-typical polyether polyols contain ethylene oxide in a concentration which generally does not exceed 20%. However, a polyether polyol c) with high proportions of ethylene oxide (greater than 50% by weight) is a prerequisite for the highly damping foam according to the invention. In order to achieve the desired high attenuation, the necessary concentration of this polyol must exceed 30%, based on the polyol components a), b) and c).
  • 3. If appropriate, compounds having at least two isocyanate-reactive hydrogen atoms and a molecular weight of 32 to 399. This is taken to mean hydroxyl groups and / or amino groups and / or compounds containing thiol groups and / or carboxyl groups, preferably compounds having hydroxyl groups and / or amino groups, which act as chain extenders or crosslinking agents. These compounds generally have 2 to 8, preferably 2 to 4, hydrogen atoms which are reactive toward isocyanates. Examples of this are described in DE-OS 2 832 253, pages 10 to 20.
  • 4. Water as blowing agent, preferably in an amount of 1 to 4 parts by weight per 100 parts by weight of polyol mixture a) + b) + c).
  • 5. If necessary, auxiliaries and additives such as
    • a) volatile organic substances as further blowing agents,
    • b) reaction accelerators and reaction retarders of the type known per se in the amount customary per se,
    • c) surface-active additives, such as emulsifiers and foam stabilizers,

Diese gegebenenfalls mitzuverwendenden Hilfs- und Zusatzstoffe werden beispielsweise in der DE-OS 2 732 292, Seiten 21-24, beschrieben.These auxiliary substances and additives, which may also be used, are described, for example, in DE-OS 2 732 292, pages 21-24.

Durchführung des erfindungsgemäßen Verfahrens:
Die Reaktionskomponenten werden erfindungsgemäß nach dem an sich bekannten Einstufenverfahren, dem Präpolymerverfahren oder dem Semipräpolymerverfahren zu Umsetzung gebracht, wobei man sich oft maschineller Einrichtungen bedient, z.B. solcher, die in der US-Patentschrift 2 764 565 beschrieben werden. Einzelheiten über Verarbeitungseinrichtungen, die auch erfindungsgemäß infrage kommen, werden in Kunststoff-Handbuch, Band VII, herausgegeben von Vieweg und Höchtlen, Carl-Hanser-Verlag, München 1966, z. B. auf den Seiten 121-205, beschrieben.
Implementation of the method according to the invention:
According to the invention, the reaction components are reacted according to the one-step process, the prepolymer process or the semi-prepolymer process, which are known per se, machine equipment often being used, for example those described in US Pat. No. 2,764,565. Details about processing devices, which are also suitable according to the invention, are found in Kunststoff-Handbuch, Volume VII, edited by Vieweg and Höchtlen, Carl-Hanser-Verlag, Munich 1966, e.g. B. on pages 121-205.

Die Umsetzung aller Komponenten erfolgt erfindungsgemäß bei einer Kennzahl über 70, vorzugsweise bei einer Kennzahl von 70 bis 115.According to the invention, all components are implemented with a key figure above 70, preferably with a key figure from 70 to 115.

Die Kennzahl, ein bei der Herstellung von Polyurethanschaumstoffen sehr häufig verwendeter Begriff, sagt etwas über den Vernetzungsgrad eines Schaumstoffs aus. Es ist Gepflogenheit, denjenigen Schaumstoff als mit der Kennzahl 100 gefertigt zu betrachten, bei welchem die den stöchiometrischen Verhältnissen entsprechende, bzw. die theoretisch notwendige Menge an Isocyanat benutzt wurde. Mit Hilfe der Kennzahl ist es also möglich, den Grad der Unter- oder Übervernetzung näher zu definieren. Die Kennzahl errechnet sich nach der allgemeinen Formel wie folgt:

Figure imgb0001
The key figure, a term used very often in the production of polyurethane foams, says something about the degree of crosslinking of a foam. It is customary to consider that foam with the code number 100, in which the stoichiometric ratio or the theoretically necessary amount of isocyanate was used. With the help of the key figure it is possible to define the degree of under- or over-networking in more detail. The key figure is calculated according to the general formula as follows:
Figure imgb0001

Erfindungsgemäß wird die Verschäumung in geschlossenen Formen durchgeführt. Dabei wird das Reaktionsgemisch in eine Form eingetragen. Als Formmaterial kommt Metall, z.B. Aluminium oder Kunststoff, z.B. Epoxidharz, infrage. In der Form schäumt das schäumfähige Reaktionsgemisch auf und bildet den Formkörper. Erfindungsgemäß kann man in diesem Zusammenhang so vorgehen, daß man in die Form so viel schaumfähiges Reaktionsgemisch einträgt, daß der gebildete Schaumstoff die Form gerade ausfüllt. Man kann aber auch so arbeiten, daß man mehr schaumfähiges Reaktionsgemisch in die Form einträgt, als zur Auffüllung des Forminneren mit Schaumstoff notwendig ist. Im letztgenannten Fall wird somit unter "over-charging" gearbeitet; eine derartige Verfahrensweise ist z.B. aus den US-Patentschriften 3 178 490 und 3 182 104 bekannt.According to the invention, the foaming is carried out in closed molds. The reaction mixture is introduced into a mold. Metal, for example aluminum or plastic, for example epoxy resin, can be used as the molding material. The foamable reaction mixture foams in the mold and forms the shaped body. According to the invention, one can proceed in this connection in such a way that so much foamable reaction mixture is introduced into the mold that the foam formed just fills the mold. However, it is also possible to work by adding more foamable reaction mixture to the mold than is necessary to fill the interior of the mold with foam. In the latter case, "over-charging" is used; such a procedure is known, for example, from US Pat. Nos. 3,178,490 and 3,182,104.

Die günstigen Eigenschaften der erfindungsgemäßen Polyurethanschäume werden durch die besondere Zusammensetzung der Polyolkomponente erreicht. Es sind zwar bestimmte Abmischungen (z.B. Beispiel 1) instabil und entmischen sich innerhalb von Stunden. Lagerstabile A/B-Systeme konnten aber durch eine vorgelagerte Prepolymerisierungsreaktion erhalten werden. Diese Systeme haben verarbeitungstechnische Vorteile. Drei Prepolymerisierungsverfahren wurden angewendet, um eine Entmischung der Polyolkomponente zu verhindern.

  • Herstellung eines NCO-haltigen Prepolymeren durch Vorreaktion von Anteilen oder von der Gesamtmenge des Polyethers c) im Isocyanat. Es haben sich Prepolymere bewährt, deren NCO-Gehalt zwischen 10 und 20 % liegt.
  • Herstellung eines NCO-haltigen Prepolymeren durch Vorreaktion des Weichformschaumpolyols a) mit dem Isocyanat. Die Komponente b) ist mit dem ethylenoxidreichen Polyol mischbar; aus diesem Grund lassen sich stabile Formulierungen herstellen.
  • Herstellung eines OH-funktionellen Prepolymers durch Umsetzung der Polyolmischung mit geringen Teilen Isocyanat. Die Vorvernetzung verhindert die Phasenseparierung. Die zugegebene Isocyanatmenge wird so dosiert, daß einerseits die Viskosität des Polyols in einem verarbeitbaren Rahmen bleibt und andererseits eine Entmischung vermieden wird.
The favorable properties of the polyurethane foams according to the invention are achieved by the special composition of the polyol component. Certain mixtures (eg example 1) are unstable and separate within hours. Storage-stable A / B systems could, however, be obtained by an upstream prepolymerization reaction. These systems have processing advantages. Three prepolymerization methods were used to prevent segregation of the polyol component.
  • Production of an NCO-containing prepolymer by prereaction of parts or of the total amount of polyether c) in the isocyanate. Prepolymers whose NCO content is between 10 and 20% have proven successful.
  • Production of an NCO-containing prepolymer by pre-reaction of the flexible foam polyol a) with the isocyanate. Component b) is miscible with the ethylene oxide-rich polyol; for this reason stable formulations can be produced.
  • Production of an OH-functional prepolymer by reacting the polyol mixture with small parts of isocyanate. Pre-crosslinking prevents phase separation. The amount of isocyanate added is metered in such a way that on the one hand the viscosity of the polyol remains within a processable range and on the other hand segregation is avoided.

Die erfindungsgemäß hergestellten Weichformschaumstoffe liegen in einem Rohdichtebereich von 25 bis 250 kg/m³, wobei Verlustfaktoren von über 0,8 ohne den Zusatz von anorganischen und/oder organischen Füllstoffen erreicht werden. Die Polyurethanschaumstoffe können in Abhängigkeit von der Kennzahl und Treibmittelgehalt weich bis hart eingestellt werden, ohne ihre Flexibilität zu verlieren.The flexible molded foams produced according to the invention are in a bulk density range of 25 to 250 kg / m 3, loss factors of over 0.8 being achieved without the addition of inorganic and / or organic fillers. The polyurethane foams can be soft to hard depending on the key figure and blowing agent content, without losing their flexibility.

Als mögliche Anwendungen der erfindungsgemäß hergestellten hochdämpfenden Schaumstoffe kommen z.B. in Frage:

  • Als Feder in Masse-Feder-Systemen (Akustik)
    Heute gefertigte Automobile werden häufig zur Geräuschminderung im Fahrgastraum mit Teppichbodenkonstruktionen, die aus einem Verbund aus Textilbelag, Schwermatte (Masse) und PU-Schaum (Feder) bestehen. Hochdämpfender Schaum kann die Resonanzeinbrüche bei niedrigen Frequenzen verhindern und wirkt gleichzeitig als Schallabsorptionsdedium.
  • Schallabsorption (Akustik)
    Ein hoher Verlustfaktor verbessert die guten Dämpfungseigenschaften von PU-Schaumstoffen.
  • Energieabsorption (z.B. Aufprallenergie)
    Die geringe Rückprallelastizität der erfindungsgemäß hergestellten Schaumstoffe (vgl. Beispiel 1) beweist die große Energieabsorption der erfindungsgemäß hergestellten Schaumstoffe.
Possible applications of the highly damping foams produced according to the invention are, for example:
  • As a spring in mass-spring systems (acoustics)
    Automobiles manufactured today are often used to reduce noise in the passenger compartment with carpeted constructions that consist of a composite of textile covering, heavy mat (mass) and PU foam (spring). Highly damping foam can prevent resonance dips at low frequencies and at the same time acts as a sound absorption medium.
  • Sound absorption (acoustics)
    A high loss factor improves the good damping properties of PU foams.
  • Energy absorption (e.g. impact energy)
    The low rebound resilience of the foams produced according to the invention (cf. Example 1) proves the high energy absorption of the foams produced according to the invention.
